Awesome capture

great capture! My heart weeps for this horse and others in the wild. I know it's nature, but I still don't like it.

like it!

From an avid former horse-owner and lifetime horse lover, this produces lots of emotions, and I can feel for this wild horse. Your shots are amazing, albeit sad feelings for these magnificent creatures.

He's a tough one, alright. He's in superb condition and is definitely a survivor. He will survive these wounds and live to sire more like him. It is hard to see these beautiful animals scarred from their battles, however, those battles ensure that there will be more wild horses for us to enjoy in photographs like this one. Great job!

Breathtaking beauty and pain, thank you for sharing it.

Wild horses! I really wish that I could be there to witness their beauty! Thank you for sharing!

Incredible capture of such a magnificent stallion. Beautiful in spite of his battle scars. You are so very blessed to be able to view these wild horses! Thank you for sharing them with those of us who can't.
